A few weeks ago we were shopping at Toys R Us (the boys have birthday and Christmas money to spend!) and I had some TRU Rewards to spend from Christmas shopping. The boys picked out their new toys and as we were heading toward the cash registers, I saw that they had the Totally Toddler items Buy One, Get One Free so I snatched up two boxes of dryer balls. I'd been wanting to try them out.
I immediately put two of them in the dryer. As far as softness goes, I don't know if I've ever pulled my clothes out of the dryer and thought "wow, these sure are stiff clothes..." So they've done their job as far as that goes. One thing they don't do so well at is reducing static. So I looked up a few ways to combat that. I settled on a rag pinned with a few safety pins. And that's not really working either. So my next step is to use 1/2 c. of vinegar in the rinse cycle of my washing. Even with the static, we're still using the dryer balls.
The cost of the dryer balls was $10.98 each, BUT they were buy one get one free (2 balls come in each package) so now it's $10.98 for two packs. I had coupons totaling $9 off my purchase so I paid around $2 for two packs of dryer balls that should last me AT LEAST a year per each set.
Score!
